Abstract

A method for determining one or more characteristics of particles using multiple fluorescence analysis comprises directing an incident light beam at the particles under analysis. The particles include at least three fluorescent markers each having different emission spectra. The incident light beam causes the excitation of the markers by light at a single wavelength whereby different wavelengths of fluorescence are emitted from the particles. Different fluorescence emissions associated with the particles under analysis are simultaneously detected. This method further includes associating the detected fluorescence with one or more characteristics of the particles. An apparatus is also part of the present invention for carrying out the aforementioned method.
